Workshop notifications have now all been sent out. To say we were overwhelmed with incredible proposals is an understatement. Compared to previous ISECs, we received > 3x the # of proposals. Look out for information on the accepted workshops next week! #StatisticalEcology 🇲🇽🐆🦋

Workshop & roundtable proposal submissions are now closed! The caliber & number of proposals received is 🤯. Shaping up to be an incredibly exciting & jam-packed ISEC 2027. Stay tuned for more announcements in a few weeks 🐾🦋👩🏽‍💻 statisticalecology.org

Two more days to submit a round table and/or workshop proposal! We’ve already received some spectacular submissions & look forward to those that are on their way. 📉👩🏽‍💻🦋

One week left to submit a workshop proposal for ISEC 2027 in Mérida: statisticalecology.org We're open to workshop topics covered in previous ISECs (www.isec2022.org/workshops/) & new topics like: - machine learning/AI - computer vision - approximate/variational inference - amortized inference

Tell us who to follow!! Tag 👇🏽 the statisticians, statistical ecologists, ecological statisticians, quantitative ecologists, machine learning researchers with ecological interests, & everyone else we should be following. #StatisticalEcology 📊🗺️💻🦋🐈‍⬛
